The simplest definition of "philosophy" is: the love of wisdom.The two root words are "philo" meaning love and "sophia" meaning wisdom.Philosophy is not the same as wisdom. Philosophy is the love of wisdom.There are many people who have a wisdom that they live by or believe in; many people have been indoctrinated into one creed or another. That does not make them philosophers. A philosopher is a person who personally loves to know the truth about the general principles of the world; a person who actively pursues the truth in such matters.
